These little bite-size pastry treats are smoky and rich. Perfect for a starter or al fresco canape. The smoked pancetta and nutty parmesan absorb the wood fired aroma and it’s a lovely twist on a classic quiche Lorraine.
Method
Preheat your pizza oven to 250˚C and move the fire to one side to cook. Press shortcrust pastry into small individual tart cases or dariole moulds and trim off edges with a butter knife.
In a skillet fry your pancetta and garlic with oil for 6-7 mins until crispy. Then remove from your pizza oven and allow to cool. Beat your eggs and whisk in the cream, cheese and seasoning. Incorporate your pancetta to form a carbonara filling for the pastry cases.
Spoon some carbonara mix into each case and then bake in the pizza oven on a roasting tray for 12-15 mins until the pastry is golden brown.
